The Part 360 regulations also include a section which allows certain materials to exit the solid waste stream when beneficially used. The Beneficial Use Determination (BUD) regulations identify certain solid wastes that, when used in a specific manner, are no longer subject to regulation under Part 360. For solid waste not specifically identified in Part 360, procedures and criteria are included to allow the DEC to make case-specific determinations of beneficial use. Under the BUD Program, waste materials which would otherwise be disposed of can be utilized in a cost-efficient manner, in many instances saving our State's natural resources. The Department maintains a list of BUDs granted in New York State. dec.ny.gov Solid Waste Program Administer the Part 360 Regulations The New York State Solid Waste Management Program is administered as a regionalized program. All Part 360 permits, registrations, variances and other permit related determinations regarding the construction and operation of solid waste management facilities are issued on a regional basis. The NYSDEC divides the State into nine multi-county regional jurisdictions. Each of these nine regions is staffed with a Regional Solid & Hazardous Materials Engineer and program staff. Regional staff are responsible for permitting, facility inspection and assessment of facility compliance. The Division's Central Office in Albany provides program, administrative and technical assistance to the Regional staff. Central Office staff also develop program policy and rule making initiatives. The Part 360 regulations were substantially revised in 1993 to address 40 CFR Part 258 federal criteria for municipal solid waste landfills, and to address legal, technological, and policy developments that occurred after 1988. The 1993 Part 360 regulations also provide more regulatory flexibility and reduced regulatory burden than previous versions of Part 360. Additionally, the current Part 360 regulations include a registration process for certain types of solid waste management facilities such as transfer stations and land clearing debris landfills which the Department and the regulated community feel do not require the extensive scrutiny and evaluation of a full Part 360 permit process. The registration process is simple yet it still ensures adequate record keeping and controls over these smaller, less complex solid waste management facilities without sacrificing environmental protection.
